Mama, my bed is wet!
Washington: Patience on the part of parents, along with some simple steps, can help cure night-time bedwetting, or primary nocturnal enuresis, among kids. While most of the children outgrow this condition, others continue wetting the bed up to the age of 6-7 years, which could eventually raise social and psychological issues.
The condition happens more often in boys than in girls, and tends to run in families.
Dr. Paul Austin, associate professor of surgery at Washington University in St. Louis and a paediatric urologist at St. Louis Children's Hospital, said that bedwetting is not due to a behavioural or mental problem or laziness of the child.
